Have you been sick this winter?

?

I had one really bad cold over Christmas... that finally went away and I started to get one yesterday...hit me bad today, came home from work to sleep.... woke up and felt worse. Everyone at my work is sick... blah...

 

I was sick with a cold back in late November. It lasted about a week. It wasn't too bad.

 

Plus, I take like 8000 mg of vitamin C everyday, which does a tremendous amount of good for my immunity.

 

damn, you take that much? i take 3,000 mgs of vit. C a day but maybe ill increase it... i also take zinc and some other things...

 

well its summer here but i had a bad case of glandular fever in january. missed so many beautiful sunny days lying in bed

 

yes! Arrg, I had a really nasty cold in Jan that ended up having a bacterial infection along with it, made my throat swell almost shut, had to be hospitalized and everything for it. It went away, but I've got a wee bit of a cold again. Grrr, I just wanna be completely healthy again so I can make out and not worry about infecting my guy

 

Yes. During the spring and summer I take around 4000-6000 mgs daily, but during the winter I take 8000 daily... sometimes as much as 10,000. Of course I don't take it just for my immune system, but it definitely helps.

I take zinc as well, and vitamin E.

For the past two years I have also been using colloidal silver, which I highly recommend to people that really want to boost their immunity.

 

I'm sick now....I've been sick since last thursday....I'm not very happy

 

I take plenty of vitamin C and zinc also and eat pretty healthily and excercise and all that but my immune system is still shit. It sucks.

 

me too


Do you have hoards of snot in your nose as well?

 

ooh oooh, I do! And my head feels all pressurized or something, it sucks, like my ears need to pop but won't

 

I was feeling like that a few days ago as well


It fucking blows!


Thankfully all I have is the stuffy nose now.

Feel better, take lots of vitamens

 

I have a really bad cold right now. I was last to get it, all other 3 people my hosue had it the first one 3 weeks ago; I kept being strnog but... now I have it.

Its prob clearing in a few days dthough. And nospray is fucking cool.
But its weekend tomorrow and I can't really smoke well I think.. (hash) whichi s gay.

 

For the month of January, my kids and I were sick almost every single week with something. It was terrible, I seriously thought that I was going to go off the deep end of insanity. My husband was lucky and didn't catch anything, almost, but he fought it off. It's crazy because he doesn't take very good care of himself whereas I do. He swears it's the beer he drinks every evening, says it kills off any germs. I don't know, but it's odd how he can passionately kiss me while I have Strep and not get it. He's got one kick-butt immune system.

 

I've stayed sick this winter, can't get rid of the sickness.

Shit sucks.

 

haven't been sick this winter...last time i was sick was around thanksgiving time

but i feel like i'm getting something right now...started getting really dizzy and nauseous today

 

i almost never get sick. which is good, because i'm a total drag when i'm sick. i'm truly pitiful. i don't whine a lot, but my light sorta goes out. i'm not bouncy any more. it scares dave. he'll keep asking me if i need to see a doctor or something, which is irritating, and so ihave to pretend to feel better than i do. terrible thing.

 

I haven't been sick in five years...

Until a few weeks ago when I was having some stomach problems. I went to the doctor last week and they couldn't figure out what was wrong with me, so they gave me a urine test and took blood samples to test. Come to find out I had a urinary tract infection...so before I found that out, I woke up and couldn't breathe, my throat was swollen almost shut, every muscle in my body ached and my head throbbed.

Come to find out the bacteria from my UTI got into my muscles...*shudders*

I'm finally starting to feel better after almost two months.

 

you know, i've noticed that people fall into mostly two categories, those who get sick all the time, and the people with recurring severe headaches or other such constant pain. i get the constant severe headaches: migraines, clusters, tmj, tension. i get them all and have a different pain reliever for each, though no opiates, sadly.

 

i almost never get sick. but i was feeling shitty the other day. i'm alright today though.

i have a tendency to get hurt more than sick.
